Colorado Department of Transportation maintenance crews will resurface Colorado Highway 145 in Rico on a one-mile stretch from just south of town to the north end.
The chip seal process being used is a maintenance operation that will prolong the life of the roadway. Crews will work on Monday and Tuesday, June 26-27.
Travelers can expect brief delays while traveling through the work zone. Drivers may experience lane shifts as well as traffic reduced to a single-lane, alternating intermittently in either direction, throughout the duration of the project. Motorists will be guided by flaggers and/or pilot cars. Delays of 5 to 15 minutes are possible.
Travelers are urged to slow down because loose stones can damage vehicle paint and windshields, increase distance between vehicles to limit damage from loose stones, and obey caution signs.
